Daily Scripture & Questions

Joshua 22-24 Joshua’s great farewell speech has several key warnings in it. Which ones are the most important for you to remember right now? Have you actually chosen to serve the Lord (24:15)?

Family Devotions-Scripture & Questions

Read Joshua 22:13-20. The tribes of Israel that were going to go back to the other side of Jordan River built what? Why did Phinehas, the high priest, and the others think this could be wrong? Do you think, from what you read, that the people had learned their lesson from their previous failures?

Biblical Prayer Focus

2 Corinthians 1:8-11 “For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again. You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many.”

Thank the Lord for the burdens of life that have taught you not to rely on yourself but on God Who raises the dead. Help others make it through the hard times by praying for them.
